What did you do to your cacti today?

Recommended Posts

Finally got some more rocks to put down on my bed to help keep dirt down/reduce weeds/reflect light/keep in moisture :P

Noticed my variegated crest is going dichotomous so 2 crested growth points :)

Found this sexy little beast at work (Echinopsis deserticola if you can't read the tag)

While watering, I found what appear to be seed pods of some kind in my pereskiopsis pot. They almost resemble those little sticky burs but they were almost attached to the dirt/wood and seem to have seeds inside them.. Does anyone know what these might be?? This pot was in the greenhouse at work for a while but no idea what they are from.

the seeds on the left side of the razor and a few of the pod clusters

look like some sort of bird's nest fungi to me

lol no i never planated them, these are other ones, i have a heat pad and the baggies are on them but in small dishes, if these seeds are gonners i will curse the day i used the baggie method and spit on the grave of whomever cursed the world with this abomination

BREAKING: after some emergency re-accomodation i'm pleased to announce that all types have sprouted at least one, except for juuls x lumberjack and paradeyes x psycho0 (but that was always a long shot),

hey if you have any idea how do deal with mealies (over ground and under ground) in a biofriendly manner

please chime in in this thread

http://www.shaman-australis.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=39645&hl=

cheers

underground as in ... "so.... I decided to take my work back underground... stop it falling into the wrong hands"...

 

 

or .... underground as in abandoned disused military silo network... ? ... sounds fun either way.. :lol:

what are these mealies of which you do speak?... are they a craft or skill we here possess? :shroomer:

it can get ridiculous

I am experienced in these matters

I have to narrow down by species just cause I don't have the space to overwinter more than a million plants

not having to screw with it is a relief... this is deja vu tho.. didn't i say something about this to you b4? lol
